need help for Android build.

[Yifan Jiang]

Dear kind developers,

I met a problem when trying to build LO Android libraries from the latest
master, it stuck in early autogen.sh phase which looks something wrong with
testing the cross compiler. I spent many time trying to see what happened but
didn't figure out what's wrong :( I'd appreciate if any one can some give
suggestions to resolve it, thank you in advance!

Also, I tried to run the error section manually, which is failed as:
